| 07:58.35 | morsing | Armand: How's Sandy? |
| 07:59.42 | Armand | It passed close to where my gf lives, but she hasnt suffered any major property damage |
| 08:55.23 | morsing | Good :) |
| 08:56.34 | Armand | The place where they filmed Jersey Shore has been destroyed. |
| 08:56.48 | Armand | So, at least some good came out of it all. |
| 09:25.19 | yaMatt | hahah |
| 09:26.17 | Armand | :P |
| 09:26.44 | Armand | It was all too close though. |
| 09:26.53 | Armand | The gf had to go rescue her nan |

| 09:29.49 | yaMatt | oh wow |
| 09:30.03 | yaMatt | some guys I know who live in NY State said all they got was a bit of rain |
| 09:30.20 | Armand | Not "rescue" exactly... but, she was evacuated |
| 09:30.42 | Armand | She lives in northern NJ. |
| 09:32.44 | yaMatt | oh wow |
| 09:33.22 | yaMatt | weirdly the tail end of the hurricane is hitting us now, we'll get the main brunt in a week or so |
| 09:33.54 | Armand | Won't be too major for us.. |
| 09:35.34 | yaMatt | na, it'll lose most of it's power in that time, but we do still get some pretty wild winds |
| 09:36.17 | Armand | Hold up.. where the heck are you? |
| 09:36.57 | yaMatt | UK |
| 09:37.53 | Armand | Ok.. I thought you meant, you're in the path. |
| 09:38.24 | yaMatt | in a way, yes |
| 09:39.03 | Armand | It won't be anything more than shitty weather here.. |
| 09:39.13 | yaMatt | no, that is true |
| 09:41.09 | Armand | I told the gf, I'm installing storm-shutters on her house when I get there. ¬_¬ |

| 09:50.01 | Armand | True.. but, hopefully I'll have time before the next. |

| 10:27.19 | Armand | .o/ |
| 10:27.50 | z00dax | hey, howse it going ? |
| 10:28.13 | Armand | Coolies.. playing with my rPi. :) |
| 10:32.46 | Armand | Overnight Pi smells like warm plastic. :P |
| 10:36.39 | yaMatt | delicious Pi |
| 10:37.22 | Armand | Noms! |
| 10:38.45 | z00dax | plastic pie |
| 10:39.02 | z00dax | speaking of toys, I'm expecting something today, via *drumroll* dpd |
| 10:39.21 | z00dax | the email from them last night said 'overnight guranteed 1 hr timeslot' |
| 10:39.31 | yaMatt | better than Yodel at least |
| 10:39.33 | Armand | ??? |
| 10:39.44 | z00dax | I've been checking since this morning about 7am'ish and its still 'Your parcel is going out for delivery' |
| 10:39.52 | yaMatt | so it's guarenteed to arrive while you're sleeping |
| 10:40.22 | z00dax | they are supposed to update the tracking page first thing in the morning to confirm the one hour timeslot when to expect the delivery |
| 10:40.40 | Armand | What is it? *cat* |
| 10:40.46 | z00dax | i guess what its going to be is : 'waiting' till the guy drives around the corner, and they update the site with 'NOW!' |
| 10:40.56 | Armand | lol |
| 10:42.27 | Armand | So, what's your "toy" then?? Or, should I not ask? :P |
| 10:42.39 | yaMatt | heh |
| 10:43.26 | yaMatt | it does seem weird to me that in the days of reliable 3G and GPS that they can't tell you more accurately what is happening when your package once it is out of the depot |
| 10:43.39 | yaMatt | even trains and busses tell you where they are these days |
| 10:43.52 | Armand | I was thinking that, waiting for UKMail. |
| 10:44.09 | Armand | You've got a "tracking" service, but... you don't know where it is?? |
| 10:44.11 | Armand | O_o |
| 10:44.15 | Armand | dafuq? |
| 10:44.42 | yaMatt | but then it seems that all postal systems have a lot of wtfuttery about them |
| 10:44.52 | Armand | Yarp. -_- |
| 10:46.25 | z00dax | ha, just looked at twitter, some bloke got email at 10:15 saying his delivery is due between 7am and 8am today |
| 10:46.45 | yaMatt | I'd really like a button I can press on their site that makes my parcel remain in the depot until I'm available to pick it up |
| 10:46.56 | yaMatt | because I KNOW I'm goign to be at work when they deliver |
| 10:47.02 | z00dax | at the moment the status is 'Your parcel is going out for delivery' |
| 10:47.04 | yaMatt | z00dax, nice :D |
| 10:47.15 | yaMatt | z00dax, that's what I usually see too |
| 10:50.05 | z00dax | Armand: its a computer :D) |
| 10:50.11 | Armand | \o/ |
| 10:50.30 | Armand | I was so happy I got my Pi quick. :) |
| 10:51.02 | z00dax | I have a raspi as well, no idea what to do with it :( |
| 10:51.23 | z00dax | correction, i have 3 raspi's |
| 10:51.43 | Armand | O_O |
| 10:51.52 | z00dax | one I bought, the other two were given to me by other people who failed to arrive at a suiteable use for said device |
| 10:52.04 | Armand | I'm using mine as a webserver |
| 10:52.11 | Armand | I need more.. lol |
| 10:52.30 | z00dax | webserver for what ? |
| 10:52.54 | z00dax | a shared hosting $1.99/yr account from dreamhosts or someone might be more potent |
| 10:53.10 | Armand | True, but... it wouldn't be mine. |
| 10:53.37 | Armand | I'm doing this to expand my skillset. :) |

| 11:20.00 | yaMatt | z00dax, anything on this DevOps meetup? |
| 11:21.39 | z00dax | aparently John is going to bring the machine around 1'sh - lets see how that works out |
| 11:21.48 | z00dax | yaMatt: there is something planned for the 29th Nov |
| 11:22.08 | z00dax | the overall feeling in that group is - just have meetup's with no real agenda, so people can come and chat and go away |
| 11:23.16 | z00dax | yaMatt: has much to do with the fact that most people in that group are already doing things at a common level |
| 11:23.25 | z00dax | and most people just want to talk about the issues they have |
| 11:31.15 | yaMatt | z00dax, common level? |
| 11:32.10 | yaMatt | I've been trying to set up the next meet but have been getting bugger-all response from the people I've contacted |
| 11:32.24 | yaMatt | I wanted Nov 10th, but it looks like that is now going to slip |
| 11:32.40 | yaMatt | problem is I'm moving house the week after that so that kind of limits what I can do |
| 11:32.56 | yaMatt | might put a message along those lines to the ML |
| 11:33.26 | z00dax | yaMatt: common level as in, most of the guys there have 8 - 10 years of admin under the hood and are mostly doing webops type things |
| 11:33.55 | z00dax | it wont be wrong to say that for new people trying to get in, its almost hostile :) lots of homework and buzzword decoding on the fly needed |
| 11:34.26 | z00dax | I can most likely do the 10th Nov |
| 11:34.46 | z00dax | but not any other weekend till Jan next year |
| 11:35.53 | yaMatt | ah, doesn't sound ideal |
| 11:36.34 | yaMatt | well I would like to give as much notice as possible and considering I'm getting no response from the people I've contacted about putting on events and their respective locations it might be difficult in the first place |
| 11:36.50 | z00dax | yeah, i know how that goes |
| 11:37.14 | yaMatt | would ideally like to give minimum of 2 weeks notice, but we're already behind that |
| 11:40.00 | yaMatt | going to try angry e-mails now :D |
| 11:40.34 | yaMatt | Google Campus was if anything too eager for me to book |
| 11:48.47 | z00dax | are you going to have people come and speak ? |
| 11:48.57 | yaMatt | that's the other problem |
| 11:49.16 | yaMatt | I've got some who said they would, need to check whether they can |
| 11:49.18 | z00dax | one thing that worked for me was to ask those people to promote the talk via their own social / blog media - so they target an audience already established |
| 11:49.27 | yaMatt | ah, good idea |
| 11:51.25 | z00dax | the other thing was that keeping Sean involved meant that he would promote the meeting in the university as well - and that can be a good source of interesting people who stay interested |
| 11:52.28 | z00dax | another tip : remember that people like agk know everyone ( not kidding, he knows everyone! ) and can be a good resource to open doors to interesting people who are usually willing to come talk |
| 11:53.26 | yaMatt | yeah, saw him at the IET RPi talk the other day, he really does know everyone |

| 13:40.16 | z00dax | i have toys |
| 13:40.43 | z00dax | also, surprised that the email from delivery company said that person will be here about 1:03pm |
| 13:40.48 | z00dax | and he rang the bell at 1:04 |
| 13:41.03 | z00dax | ( and the email did come through about 3 hrs before he got here ) |
| 13:42.32 | AndyMillar | that's surprisingly accurate |
| 13:43.50 | Armand | I've solved my network cable issue... Need to find my bloody network switch now. ¬_¬ |
| 13:44.10 | Armand | Ohh, and then get more Pi. ^_^ |
| 13:44.38 | yaMatt | can never have too much Pi |
| 13:45.05 | Armand | Well, it would be nice if I had 3 more of the new Model B. |
